Matt Rocks The House at Sapulpa High School Talent Show

I am a little late in posting this. I was hoping to have the video clip to add, but so far it has not been posted to the internet yet.


On Tuesday, February 21st, Matt with his bandmates, Crimson Crucifix performed at the Sapulpa High School Talent Show. It was an awesome performance. The band was the first to perform. After they were finished with their awesome two songs, Matt performed a drum solo....and let me tell you HE ROCKED THE HOUSE!!! Before he started he came out on stage and was really working the crowd! My son, the quiet laid back kid, was working the crowd. I was so proud! Then he went behind the curtains and when the curtains opened he went into one of the most awesome Drum Solos EVER!




I have heard this solo several thousand times as he practiced, but there is just something about hearing it on stage vs. my house! I had to remember to take pictures when I was listening. Soooooo cooool... And to top it all off - He took 2nd Place with that solo! It was a bummer that Crimson Crucifix didn't place, because they were totally awesome!

A Fun Weekend....

I have had a great weekend. The only bummer is that I missed out on all of the Fun at SGK and 2Jills, both were having great Cyber Crops. I won't miss out next time around.

Yesterday, Chris and I went out for lunch at On The Boarder and I had one of my favorite salads....Sizzling Beef Fajita Salad with Ranch Dressing....Yummy! Chris had something with corn and rice (mixed - OMG! totally disgusting)...so I did not pay any attention to what was on his plate...and I strategically positioned the chip bowl inbetween our plates to where when I looked across the table at him, I would not see the revolting mix of food on his plate. He said it was good...I will just have to take his word for it. After lunch we headed to Barnes and Noble. It's been forever since I have been there. Picked up a Photo Elements Dummy book...because I am a dummy when it comes to Photo Elements...and also picked up a manual for our Rebel XTs. Chris got some car magazines to keep him occupied when we went to our next stop.....ScrapHappy's! One of my most favorite local scrapbooking stores! And OMG, they had just gotten in all of the new Basic Grey papers! I picked on pack up for my "secret sis" at SGK and I had to get Stella Ruby for myself! Beautiful paper! Love it. Also picked up some little doo-dads. Chris was proud, I didn't go over $50. I spent more at Barnes & Nobel!

We got home around 3pm and Chris slept the rest of the day. He had to work that morning, so he was beat. He really shopped til he dropped! So I scrapped for the rest of the day and had to play with my new Stella Ruby!

Here are two LOs I did with Stella Ruby....I am Tam is my DT LO for 2Jills.


Here are just some fun LOs I did with some Fancy Pants PP and BG Fruitcake paper. My Clock Obsession I used some HS clocks that Cathy from SGK RAK'd me a few weeks ago!



I found this great pic of Matt and my mom when he was 2 years old with his new drum and thought "OMG, I have to do a LO of then and now!". I had completely forgotten about that toy drum of his....
